/* ==========================================================================
   College Evaluation Guide — page styles on top of base.css.
   Ported 1:1 from 03 Features/07 College Evaluation Guide/College Evaluation Guide.html. Rules are scoped to .evaluation-guide (on <main>), the page's
   dark-mode overrides became [data-theme="dark"] and keyframes are prefixed.
   !important is kept: in these pages it decides same-specificity conflicts
   (the .mobile-only / .desktop-only helpers), so dropping it breaks layout.
   ========================================================================== */
